That 75 average hides a game its 311 fans would defend to the death. This is about the gunplay. Non-fiction, warfare set the stage, the shooting does the talking. An MMO — come for the world, stay for the people in it.

About this game

Jump into the free-to-play team-based shooter with an ever-expanding roster of historical vehicles, stunning graphics, spectacular locales, and orchestral scores. Battle it out in the company of other players in thrilling military conflicts. A unique mix of strategy and action awaits!

The player takes control of a single armored vehicle of his or her choosing, and is placed into a battle on a random map. The player has control over the vehicle's movement, firing, and can communicate with other players through typed or voice chat, and several preset actions that give tactical instructions visible to only their team. The methods used to win a match are either destroying all vehicles on the opposing team or capturing a base present in some game modes. World of Tanks contains multiple game mechanics such as camouflage, shell ricochets, and module damage.
